The company develops projects of all sizes from PoC and MVP to globally scalable Enterprise Solutions. Our flexible approach allows us to work with our clients according to their needs, and deliver complete projects. We also have the capacity to take the lead on product ownership from concept to implementation.
Why do we love Python and Javascript?
The technologies we have chosen to work with since the very beginning give us both the flexibility and competitive advantage in the market. We mainly build products using Python and Javascript, which we find to be reliable, cost-effective, easily scalable, and compliant with high-quality standards and the latest technological requirements. More and more new startups and established businesses are choosing this as the leading technology stack, making it one of the most popular nowadays.
Python itself is a very flexible and widely used open-source programming language with a large developer community worldwide and a substantial open-source library selection. According to many reliable sources (like steelkiwi, towards data science, wired, and others), Python is currently one of the fastest-growing programming languages globally, even though it has been in the market for three decades. Python technology has its legacy and proves to be used as the top technology in the future since machine learning often uses it and helps to create more innovations every day. These advantages lead Corner Case Technologies to choose Python as a primary programming language for backend development.
Our company prefers to use the Django framework for the majority of our Python projects. Django itself is one of the most popular frameworks of Python, which offers not only several prepared functions and models (such as User, Permissions, etc.) but is a very powerful ORM that has a prepared admin configuration dashboard (see picture below). Our customers love how much time and money they save by taking advantage of all the benefits Django admin panel offers. All these features are cost-efficient and ensure that projects are scalable and easy to maintain. For that reason, we invest a lot in growing the backend team’s expertise and training in this particular framework.
JavaScript is another programming language commonly used in web development. It was originally developed by Netscape (the full story of Netscape can be found here) as a means of adding interactive dynamic elements to websites, storing information, and handling requests and responses on a website.
Javascript is very popular globally and has many frameworks, so everyone can choose their favorite. At Corner Case Technologies we started working with React.JS framework from the early days, making it our most popular Frontend framework. React JS is basically a JavaScript library built and maintained by Facebook. React is an efficient, declarative, and flexible open-source JavaScript library for building simple, fast, and scalable frontends of web applications. Today, according to the research by Built With, there are over 220,000 live websites using React. Not only that, industry giants like Apple, Netflix, Paypal, and many others have also already started using React JS in their software productions. Another major advantage of React is that it can be used for mobile app development. In this approach we can share development power among web, desktop, and mobile applications, allowing us to develop multiple applications faster and more cost-effectively while remaining competitive in the market.
For mobile app development, we use the React Native framework, which is the most preferred cross-platform solution for the creation of both Android and iOS apps. React Native allows us to work on two different Operating Systems using a single platform. For that reason, we are using it for all our mobile applications. In fact, React Native is a real asset when it comes to improving performance through native control and modules. Among its many advantages are: saves on development cost, codes and pre-developed components can be reused, and has a broader developer community than the native app.
Additionally let’s give some credit to Docker — PaaS product (platform-as-a-service), which allows you to build, test, and deploy applications quickly. Docker packages software into standardized units called containers, that have everything the software needs to run, including libraries, system tools, code, and runtime. Using Docker, you can quickly deploy and scale applications into any environment and know your code will run. With Docker, we can avoid the “works on my machine” approach.
Our technical teams prefer to use Django and React.JS as our core frameworks for the majority of our new projects. We have a proven record that this magic combination works perfectly for our customers. Throughout the years, our company established a reliable technical team of industry professionals (developers, product owners, and managers, QA specialists, UX/UI designers) that has extensive knowledge on how to develop high-quality digital products in a simple, quick, and money-saving way using the latest technological trends and expertise.
Although this is our preferred technical stack, we are not limiting ourselves. We are ready to adapt to every customer individually since each project is unique and can require additional technologies and solutions according to its technical and business requirements. Our technical team has also proven track-record by working with Java technology using Spring and Javascript frameworks like Node.JS and Angular.
Corner Case Technologies has already made waves with multiple innovative and successful projects across a range of companies and industries, there are several examples like Clusco, Inform Debtor, Sejico, Workofo, MyHelper and many more.
